Topic: Almost shed a tear today... (Read 1652 times)

I hope who I saw isn't a member of this forum...if so...sorry for putting you on the spot, but I have to share this story.

Was in the southern highlands part of vegas today, and seen this wicked raider come rolling by. Blacked out with some nice graphics on the tank, black exhaust...I was like man that is a sweet a$$ raider! Waved at the guy who was an older man...long gray beard...could tell he'd seen a lot of miles on a bike. He waved back, and gave each others raiders another glance before moving on.

So anyway I was about to pull up beside him at a stop sign and let him know how much I liked his ride, but as I'm coming up on him....seen he's sporting a Harley Davidson jacket!! I was said to myself...what the hell man...spend money to trick out a raider but advertise Harley?

My leather jacket is a Harley jacket but it has been debadged and the Raider patches will be put on. HD makes some great jackets, I have never seen a decent Yamaha riding jacket unless you like wearing a sport bike jacket. I don't ride a sport bike. I will say that the gentleman showed very little respect for his Raider by wearing a badged Harley jacket.
